Join me in practising Happiness!!!
Welcome to the space where the magic of writing Haiku; Poems happens as the words born in my heart flow and quietly spill just like your smile does here in the NOW and I pick it and keep in my heart..

Always there and hereEasier said than doneI know it is difficult But then notSo very difficult tooI will just have to be, Accepting everyone around Without trying to findMy own reflection in themInstead letting those all find There reflection in meAre you asking What would happenTo me then, oh, I will becomeWater, just flowingTransparent and clearAll embracing

Indeed, that means ‘ Being Love’

But, it’s ‘Being in Love’

That makes one wonder

Now, when I know this

Then why don’t I becomeA tall order thatHow can I try to be God

No, I am born a human

With all feelings and emotions

So, a situation when Love is not being thereIndeed makes me sad….But then the fact

And why not, they all meet each Others’ needsSun gives and Earth and MoonRespectfully receive and Both are happy becauseIt’s their needSun also feels goodUnless someone is willingTo receive, it can’t get

The pleasure of giving

That’s how the world Has been moving and shall Do so forever, so natural..What’s wrong, then

His mind jiggles in a flashNever lets a difficulty touchAlert pair of eyesKeeps a watch all aroundRises early, walks, meditatesStays in touch with natureCherishes being with theButterflies, flowers, Chirping birds, dancing trees.Loves to listen to Rustling sounds of leavesMelody of windsCan’t ever miss a chanceOf playing with Moon And the starsDares to hold sunbeams Directly on his faceCombines so wellPride and humilityAh, what a quality of lifeThe man lives happilyIn my inner space somewhereYet I know he is nowhereSometimes shows himselfIn my cravings and hopesHow I want to be like himIt makes me wonder –Is he the ‘other’ meMy opposite …..Oh, That makes me shudder..

****

And here's a Haiku... has to be.. difficult prompts.. but then could create one.. hope you see me jiggling too..

I jiggle early Prick of needle doesn’t feelQuality work , that!

Comments make me add here as a clarification... I was just mentioning about the competence of a Sister in a hospital... But then needle has this feel about getting connected with something negative..

Phantoms of envyWeave strings of doubt, tying mind In the rot of knots. …

Poem for OSI : Phantom...

There will be a new sunrise..

Oh, it had been intenseBetrayed by his ownShunned by masks aroundWondering about lifeHe was sitting aloneAt home, with Everything goneDreams had often danced Around him but Where were they hidingIn those momentsOf turmoilWithout any hope For a tomorrow, Footfalls of momentsGot heavier with voicesScreaming in his mindOh, all this was unbearablePain took its toll,He blacked out, and when Opened his eyes,It was a new sunriseLight pierced throughThe window, and he tooSuddenly felt lightWhat a realizationIn spite of all the turmoilHe had passed through A day and it had Turned out to beJust one simple truth Sunrise meant that Night had passedPhantoms of fear and doubts Dissolved themselvesIn the light of New awareness forTheir own salvationIt was indeed A matter of living one dayEveryday… and that’s From where he Made a new beginningDay by the dayYears have gone byWhenever pain is intenseOne thing keeps him goingHe will have to justOpen his eyesThere will be a new sunrise..And sometimes he wondersIf eyes too betray And he laughs..Then nothing would matter…

It's Friday... for Rebecca's Haiku My Heart.. and I wondered... what would I write.. sat.. and it happened... of late God appears to be smiling and sending lessons... in a different way... lessons which are already there, available through great saints.. but we slip on the way.. happy I am that God guides to keep on returning to them... well a haikued poem..

MY 297 TH POST... ( I have edited this.. had put as 299th..)

Like a bird, I fly

In search for food, God smiles, for,

He knows my hunger..

***

A puddle of rain water

I glide down , sit on the edge

Watching myself, ah!

****

The other me pokes

Enough of "I , Me and Myself "

Sky calls and I fly...

****

Ah, wind is soothing

I feel lighter, lesson hangs

Let it not fall, hey..

****

I hold the lesson

Fluttering my wings, I merge

With my inner self

****

Life turns beautiful

Happy within, now I don't

Need any mirror..

Very nasty looks, thoseAnd a soft sound of whistleShe was upset, and angryChose to confrontAnd a heated argument ensuedRogue won’t listenDidn’t accept that Mesmerized with Her flawless confidenceIn those momentsHe couldn’t lift his eyesAs they got stuck On her face, didn’t accept That it was cheapIn a flash her hand movedSlapping him on the faceMovements around ceasedTime stood stillBut then world lookedIn awe, she had moved forwardFearless and strongA woman of new age…End of Scene IIHey tell me Will she fall in love With the same rogueAnd transform him...

This is my 295th Post (Correcterd) as per the Dashboard... well the countdown begins.. for 300th...

First, a Haiku for Haiku Heights... Flaw..

Flawless act, a swishOf jealous, he wipes outMy painting of trust

And a Poem for OSI Prompt :Crater..

Drawings of Illusions

As regret flowersIn the heart, Craters of doubt Appear in mindBut then slowly light Begins to emergeFrom the depthsAnd I clearlySee the truth shiningI have been seeing myself Based on what I think But people see meBased on what I doAh, what a gap that A wide crater, perhaps..Can I reduce it…yes,For that I need to wipe outDrawings of Illusions Depicting myself, that I have drawn Deep inside on the wallsOf my own mindPerhaps on those blank wallsWill emerge a picture Of a truer me, Free from doubts and regretsAm I talking aboutUtopia turning into reality..

A dry leaf dancesMoist wind sprinkles coolAh, rains are around..***I catch a cloud, andFold it to make a pillow Ah, it soaks my tears… ***Trees take a full bathDancing in rain, wind and SunDry them up, leafs shine…

PRACTICING HAPPINESS!!

Have a good time with RS here..

Ramesh Sood

I am passionate about life and love to live it fully.. accepting whatever it offers. Have always tried to move from 'Ordinary' to atleast 'A little more than ordinary' state. No great achievements but then I try to stay in a happier state of mind most of the times.. and writing for me is part of the flow.. it just happens..
